Waterbury evening Democrat., 1887-12-30

OUR friend, the Republican, confesses that Connecticut is doubtful State, polit- ically. Not bit of it. There was time perhaps, when it was toss up which side should be in the ascendant; when issues were confused and confusing, and when be- tween Republicanism and Democracy, peo- ple stood in the condition described by Sydney Smith:
 In moderation placing all my glory,
 The Tories call me Whig-the Wings, Tory But we have changed all that. Democracy has given to the nation a President who defines the line of demarcation between good government and bad; between the rights of the masses and the rapine of the few; and Connecticut knows enough not to be any longer in doubt as to it's duty in the coming time. Besides the "Republi- can" will please remember that the EVEN ING DEMOCRAT is ill the field to controvert false teachings and sustain true principles, and guard our Waterbury outposts of the great State citadel.
